Boredom is simply not knowing what to do or being tired of doing the same stuff over and over again. It can also be a feeling of being so complacent with your relationship, being jaded with your work loads or just plainly not having any idea on how to make your day extraordinary. Oftentimes, I really feel bored to death at home, when I can't go out, or at the office when you have been doing the same thing for several years now. I know, that most of us feels this at one point in our lives. So hear are good and not-so-good suggestions on HOW NOT to get bored.

• Sleep! So you won't have that feeling of boredom.

• To check your vocabulary, list all the words you know in alphabetical order.

• Avoid talking to boring people, that will make you more bored.
• Call someone you love. Talk about what's happening to you lately, or everything under the sun.
